Rösti is made with onions, Appenzeller cheese, and caraway seeds in German cantons, while you'll see tomatoes, sweet paprika, and Gruyere cheese in French cantons, and you will notice the addition of rosemary in the Italian ones.

The cheese on top of this soup changes from canton to canton. Expect Gruyere in French cantons, Emmentaler if you are in one of the German cantons, and Parmesan in Italian ones.

Broccoli and cauliflower are included in the list of healthy food and this salad gets the best of both vegetables.
